Justification:Fallicambarus burrisi has been assessed as Data Deficient. The extent of occurrence qualifies this species for a listing under Vulnerable criteria B, however it is not clear if fragmentation is severe enough that it has resulted in non viable subpopulations with little interchange. While threats to this species habitat have been reported, it is not clear if these are driving declines in the population. Further research is needed on these threats before a more accurate assessment of conservation status can be made.

There are no immediate threats to this species, however the removal of peat bogs may pose a future threat (NatureServe 2009). Destruction of pitcher plant bogs due to road construction, development, or forest management practices have caused fragmentation within populations (S. Adams pers.comm. 2010). However, the species exists in all pitcher plant bogs sampled within its range (S. Adams pers.comm. 2010).

There are no species-specific conservation measures in place for this species. However, this species has been given a NatureServe Global Heritage Status Rank of G3, and was assigned an American Fisheries Society Status of Threatened based on its restricted range (Taylor et al. 2007, NatureServe 2009). Further research is required to determine the abundance of this species, and whether it is impacted upon by any major threat processes.
